@@janklaas6885 The truth is you are blaming God for the work of the devil, who is the god of the current system of things. James 1:13; Ecclesiastes 9:11; 2 Corinthians 4:4
This was an excellent interview. Considerate, compassionate interviewer who asked intelligent questions. Articulate, well-spoken interviewee who has his priorities in order.
So true. Far to many reporters like to poke around in peoples fears, sadness, and misery to get a more emotional response...She was a welcome change from those types.
Although he never verbally said the words, during that silent moment, I heard a father screaming “God I Love my son! Please save my son!” I had no idea what true love was until my daughter was born. Sorry for your loss of a home but great job being a Dad!
You're exactly right. 2004, head-on collision, car spun uncontrollably for what seemed like forever before coming to rest feet from a light pole. My words in that moment, just seconds after impact: "God, please, no. My kids." I had 4 babies at the time. (5 now. Oldest 25, youngest 15). God is mighty, loving, and merciful. He spared my life that day. That voice that man heard, that was God. God knows the pain and sorrow of losing a child; He sacrificed His own that we may live.
I'm crying listening to this brave man's story. God bless them and all that have been affected by the many storms and flooding the last few days and still happening. Prayers from TN.
no your not. stop lying for internet points. every year we have tornados, every year, homes and lives are destroyed, its part of life when you live in the location of tornados, dont like it? MOVE!
Huge houses? i cant believe people like you will show sympathy for another rich white males loss. give me a break, what a bout the minority neighborhoods that the New Orleans tornado ran through? where are YOUR "tears" for them?
Powerful video. He's very articulate and being from West Tennessee, yes, he's seen a few tornadoes in his life. This reporter is great. Great composure, very patient, asks intelligent questions. Praying for all in the NOLA area. 💙🙏💙
She blew the question though. She asked if you'd seen this before in new orleans. I thought she meant Tennessee but she corrected him. She'll get better
Very good interview. This young lady should go places. So sorry for the loss of his home but to have survived and protected your child is more than one could ask for.
He is such a loving father. His son is so lucky. Also what the mother was going through listening to all this on the phone and not being able to do anything
Jason Dickerson you brought tears to your fellow Brownsvillians eyes! I was very surprised and so taken back to see YOU standing tall while surrounded by total devistation. So so glad that you and your son are ok. Wow just WOW....
He did what a father should do and that was to protect his child! Bless him, the reporter and him started to weltup And cry I almost lost it too Amazing story.
Mr. Dickinson, I am so sorry to see the destruction of your home and possessions. Your cool-headedness and perspective of your ordeal is truly inspiring. Your an awesome man.
Looking through comments to see why that is, im nowhere near tornados but always heard get in bathroom and cover yourself with whatever in the bathtub? Is that not a good idea or what
@@marked4death076 I've never been in a tornado so I'm not sure. But this man knew what he was doing because he saved his and his son's life. Definitely something to look into for for the future. You just never know.

Hi from Wisconsin. Excellent interview! She asked asked the right questions in a very compassionate manner. Thank God for His guidance and protection. He listened to His voice in the middle of all that noise and turmoil! A beautiful testimony! Thank you and God bless. He has something great in store for you and your little boy, my friend.
You did a great job Dad! Your boy AND you are still alive today because of your wise decisions. I'm glad you guys are alive, and sorry for the loss of your home. Damn, these storms and weird weather cycles are increasing in numbers and destruction. Wishing you the best!
Global warming/CC will influence greater frequency and magnitude of many weather related events. Storms, precipitation (rain, snow), droughts, floods, wildfires, ocean warming and acidification, extreme temperatures. Unfortunately, more coming, globally.
Something told him "no" when he considered sheltering in the guest bathroom. That was God; God spared him and his son. Material things can be replaced. I'm happy he and his boy are alive. (Thank you, Jesus!)
I live in Houston. This was one of the first reports I saw about the tornado. WWL should be proud to have a reporter like this. The interview wasn't rushed. I really got a sense of what this man went through, and the reporter was compassionate about the situation. I think a lot of hearts were tugged on that night. Great job WWL.
Smart man! The public needs to be educated in what to do in cases like this with no basement or safe place! I am grateful to all the specialists who announce on media just where those tornados are and are going! So glad this man and his 5 year old son are safe!!! WOW!
Ah yes the Holy Spirit picking and choosing who gets to live or die. People claim “amen I’m saved!” after a tornado while a loving and good family across the street is blown to pieces and unrecognizable for an example. It was instinct given he knows how tornadoes work.
This reporter did a great job of being compassionate and empathic and yet still professional. My heart goes out to all who survived this. It's going to be a long road to recovery for the people of this community.
So sorry that you went through this horrible situation. I live close to Brownsville. Tennessee is praying for you and all those affected by this horrible tornado.
What the father did was awesome,so glad they weren’t injured but I gotta say that reporter was sure something soothing to mine eye as well as smart and respectful well done beautiful lady.
God bless this man and his son and all those who were in the line of that tornado. The interviewer is top-notch. If I ever have to live through a disaster, I hope she's the one who shows up to let me tell the story.
I had just reserved a spot for 7 days at a state park ...to camp out in a tent.. Yesterday was my first night.. but i was concerned about the bad weather all today.. and i already had the tent set up..but for some reason when i saw a tornado watch on my phone at 11am this morning for new Orleans...i decided to leave work early and hurry to break down the tent..by that time i figured it wasn't smart to try and work all day then wait late when the rain is coming down to try and break the tent back down...so when i arrived at the park.. it was only strong winds...and a park worker asked why i was leaving...i said because there's bad weather for tonight...and tornado watch for the area...but she said aww that's normal...it usually isn't that bad..and recommend that i stay despite that.... but i was steady packing and loading up..so when i arrived back in baton rouge and saw on my phone that a tornado touched down...i was so happy that i did what I did.. sometimes you have to go with your instincts..and trust God.. He'll lead you ..i hate tornadoes...and wasn't playing with that
I literally have tears in my eyes for this Daddy. I'm so thankful you and your baby boy are safe. That's all that matters. To this interviewer, you did an amazing job, you asked great questions and allowed this man to tell an important tale. I wish you nothing but the best and the greatest success.
Wow!! May the God of Peace be with you all...protect you! Provide for you! Soooo sorry for the disaster! Praying for your safety! I'm in tears for you all over there...many, many blessings from South Africa...
It's really not cool to invoke a God situation in these times..are you saying those that lost their lives were not worthy or " God" turned it's back??? Please..enuff
@@sillyworm I really don't know why unbelievers feel the need to berate those who do believe. Maybe it's because you want to believe but you're angry with yourself that you don't and then you turn that anger on someone who had more faith than you. To answer your question, though, the Word of God explains that in this world we will have trouble. It's a sin filled world where bad things happen. Everyone has to go through bad crap and everyone will die at some point. God didn't even save His own Son from a tortuous death on the cross so to blame Him when people suffer in this world doesn't make any sense at all. Satan is responsible for the evil and bad that exists so if you need to blame someone, blame him, but just stop being rude to people who believe in the same God that you don't believe in. Believe me, our faith doesn't depend on what you believe and nothing you say will ever change our faith. It's pretty pointless to belittle others for their faith and all it really does is show your poor character to your fellow human beings. Maybe try scrolling past the comments you don't agree with instead of stopping to criticize for no good reason.
God bless you thank the lord you guys are safe this was very heart touching! I’m so sorry material things can be replaced love ones can’t many prayers. Always listen to your gut and little voice in you head when it dose not feel right. Also Thankyou for explaining not to get in the bathtub and the load barring walls that makes a lot of sense our state never had tornados but we get them now a lot. Your son is so lucky to have a brave father who cared and sprung to action quickly he will be a fine young man when he grows up you can just tell by his father the way he carry’s him self. I almost started crying listening to him.
OMG! This is bad timing especially now that the economy is volatile.I feel the pain of the residents in New Orleans. We were there before and it’s a nice city. Hope the federal government helps them to rebuild their houses.
My daughter got calls it was headed our way next and she also said NO to the hallway bathroom!!! And yes it got eerily quiet! We put tennis on, grabbed her inhaler and huddled in the closet. I’m beyond grateful it stopped but heartbroken for the ones who were hit😞
Ironically, we had a similar experience last summer. About 1:30 in the morning 1 of my 2 cats bugged me to go outside. So I got up to let her out. There was a light rain and I heard the siren go off, but didnt think anything of it because that’s how they call the volunteer fire department. All of a sudden it got dead quite. The lights started flickering and the power went out. I went to wake my husband and my other cat started screaming like something I never heard before….my cat knew somehow! Then it hit , trees crashing down and a door to the outside was bowing out and shaking. It didn’t hit me it was a tornado. We ran into the basement and waited for the crashing to be done. 2doors we’re blocked by trees and you couldn’t even walk outside there was so many downed trees. We have an 1 1/2 acre lot and had 25 trees down…like god just mowed down the trees. Some trees were twisted like cork screws. It ended up being a F1 tornado and I couldn’t imagine any higher. We thought our other cat was dead, but she showed up a few hours later…don’t know how she survived that unharmed. You never think it will happen to you.
Ok made me cry. Brave man there. Am praying loss of life is minimal, prayed as soon as I heard it was on the ground. Things can be replaced our value is in each other. By the way a great Reporter. Peace!
Hey, I lived in Brownsville for a while after Katrina. So happy you and your family are safe. I went through a Tornado a couple of years ago here in Arkansas and I agree, my only thought was to protect my son.
Glad they are safe, but PLEASE, reporter - DO NOT EVER do another interview in the way you did! If for some reason the power came back on, that 240vAC power line is just over the guy's shoulder. EXTREMELY unsafe. Please, please remember - even though the 'power is off' - doesn't mean it is not dangerous. If someone were to hook a generator up incorrectly, it can backfeed the lines, the lines could still hold some power. Never trust a downed powerline - it can be a lethal mistake.
We dodged a bullet in my city. It was an uneventful night. Then a simple fast rain event. Although some small Tornadoes did spin up outside the city area. The scary part is that they hyped it up and it was uneventful. How many people will disregard the warnings next time? This guy's information has made me think about where I am going to run to if a tornado occurs. The problem is that there are not 4 walls around any place safe in my home. There are 3 solid walls of double layer. Then an opening that leads into the living room and kitchen. That opening is what scares me.
I'm glad that he listened to that voice of telling him not to be in a certain part of the house, that quick decision saving their lives. That was his guardian angels watching over them, also when you get that instinct feeling not to do something or to move you listen to it, never make the decision that the angels are warning you because they are there to save you if you don't listen then you end up dying.
“Something said no” that was the voice of God. There is a calling on the young boys life. Gif thank you for saving your children! The sweet voice of the Holy Spirit!
Excellent interview, except for the power lines too close by. This man is calm, focused, and determined in a crisis! Very important qualities. So glad he had his son are ok. Very sorry for everyone's losses. 😥
Thank you to the newscaster for letting this man speak. So often interviewers just want to hear themselves talk at the expense of the story.
Yes thats a fact, lots of them are really shallow
So many times people just need to talk about it to help them heal! So glad she allowed him to!
She is extremely young and has asked foolish questions interviewing people in the past. Most reporters do

We dodged a bullet in my city. It was an uneventful night. Then a simple fast rain event. Although some small Tornadoes did spin up outside the city area. The scary part is that they hyped it up and it was uneventful. How many people will disregard the warnings next time? This guy's information has made me think about where I am going to run to if a tornado occurs. The problem is that there are not 4 walls around any place safe in my home. There are 3 solid walls of double layer. Then an opening that leads into the living room and kitchen. That opening is what scares me.
God Bless this man and his family. Heroes among us. Bless NOLO
This broke me down. Whew chile....
Listen to this man. Go over the plan. What you do and where you take shelter can save your life.
God is so good God bless you sir and your son!
I'm glad that he listened to that voice of telling him not to be in a certain part of the house, that quick decision saving their lives. That was his guardian angels watching over them, also when you get that instinct feeling not to do something or to move you listen to it, never make the decision that the angels are warning you because they are there to save you if you don't listen then you end up dying.
Praise God! This man is a hero. Thank God he knew what to do and his son is safe.
“Something said no” that was the voice of God. There is a calling on the young boys life. Gif thank you for saving your children! The sweet voice of the Holy Spirit!
Excellent interview, except for the power lines too close by. This man is calm, focused, and determined in a crisis! Very important qualities. So glad he had his son are ok. Very sorry for everyone's losses. 😥
